Field Days planned in Clark County

NEILLSVILLE – The Clark County UW-Extension will be hosing two field days in July. The first is from noon to 3 p.m. July 23 on the Richard and Kay Halopka farm, located at N726 Robin Drive, Stetsonville (watch for signs). The Halopkas are converting their conventional tilled diversified farm to no-till. They will share their experiences of implementing rotationally grazing for a small beef herd and no-tilling row crops plus inter-seeding rotational pastures.

The second field day is from noon to 3 p.m. July 28 on the Triple A Farm Grain Site (Art Jr. and Art III Petke) located north of Longwood on Highway 73 (watch for signs).

The field days will have multiple topics and demos presented by UW–Extension, Land Conservation, and NRCS from Clark, Marathon and Taylor counties.

There is no cost for either field day; lunch will not be provided. Both field days are rain or shine events. Come dressed accordingly. CEU’s are applied for both field days.

If you are interested in attending, call the UW-Extension Office (715-743-5121) or email richard.halopka@ces.uwex.edu no later than 24 hours before the event. Registration not required, but appreciated.
